Liberty for Cuban Five

The "Jose Marti" Cultural Association, the solidarity cultural and sports group "Hasta La Victoria Siempre", the "Diethnes Vima" editions and administrators of weblogs and social media pages across the internet ("Prensa Rebelde", "Cuba de Corazon", "Proyecto Numantino" etc) met today, Wednesday 22 May 2013, in Athens, Greece, on the occasion of ICAP (Cuban Institute of Peoples Friendship) representatives' visit in our country.
We discussed and exchanged views having as an aim the best possible organization of our solidarity towards the 5 Cuban heroes who unjustly remain imprisoned in the United States, just because they dared to unfold the activity and offensive plans of terrorist groups of Miami mafia; more generally, we met to discuss our solidarity towards Cuban Revolution and the people of the heroic island.

We evaluated the fact that we must intensify our efforts which express our solidarity, to contribute with all possible means - and in collaboration with all other solidarity groups - to break the wall of silence and falsifications imposed by the mainstream media on the Cuban Five issue as well as Cuba in general.
We declare that in these harsh times that the working people of our country are undergoing, the solidarity towards Cuba is not a luxury. On the contrary, the experience of building socialism in Cuba and her examplary internationalist solidarity consists a source of new inspiration  for us in Capitalist crisis-ridden Greece.
We demand:

- The Immediate release of Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, Ramón Labañino and Fernando González, who remain imprisoned in US prisons. Their only "crime" was that they consisted part of their country's defence against the terrorist, anti-cuban organizations which act within the United States.
- The End of the economic blockade that the US has been imposed on Cuba for over 50 years.


- The abrogation of the so-called "Common Position" of the European Union regarding Cuba.
